Janis Joplin

Oh, the last time that I saw you
You know you didnt say a word.
And I knew, honey as I looked into your eyes
That my feelings, lord, theyd never been heard.
Well, Im talkin to you about love,
Did you hear me ? I said love.
Yeah, because its got to be such a long, long, long way
From denyin, from denyin.
And I say you dont say no, no, no, to me no more.
And I believed in you all the time,
Honey, until I found out you know that I was so wrong.
I wanted to try and build a life with you,
I guess I shouldve known it, I guess I shouldve known it all along.
Let me hold you just once
Honey Ill ask you just once more
Because its got to be such a long, long way from cryin
And I been cryin
And I got tears in my eyes,
Yeah, but dont you know when you love somebody, have some pressures
There can never, never, never be any secret,
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You gonna have to pay your dues
And sometimes, honey, sometimes youre bound to lose.
Yeah, but thats the way
Youre gonna learn, learn, learn to love people, yeah.
Oh god, I wish I could explain it myself,
cause I know that its my fault, dear.
Its so easy to hurt you, darling,
Its so hard, I guess its hard not to do.
And I know you showed me a new life
And youll always, yeah youll always be my friend.
Baby I dont think that I can keep from cryin
And Ill be tryin and I been cryin for you, babe,
Yes I have now.
Well, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
What would I do without you child ?
